Hamstrings, the Feldenkrais Way

This is a demo of the Awareness Through Movement® lesson called "Hamstrings, the Feldenkrais Way." It lengthens the hamstrings by incrementally layering in more challenging movements but staying in a comfortable range. We don't make muscles stronger. We make them smarter. This lesson will improve stability and mobility in walking, running and just standing around looking bored.
It is part of the series "Improving Your Balance and Stability." Watch the demo here: • Improving Your Balance...

    Just a LITTLE objection: if I were ever able to sit like you show in the very first seconds, I'd never consider having a problem. So, this video is just for people not needing this at all.

    In the audio lessons, I always instruct the student to only go as far as they can go and to stay under any level of pain or discomfort. We're not looking for a particular outcome, like sitting this way, but rather improve of our own abilities. This is another way of thinking about movement rather than the outcome-based approach of most exercise and movement programs. It's only do what YOU can do. Sorry it took so long for me to reply. BTW, I've had an injury and can't sit this way anymore. But I still do this lesson as best I can and it has helped tremendously.

    Brilliant video, thank you. I have a question. Do you have any tips for lessening the tightness felt in the calves. When seated like this I try to turn my toes towards me and feel such a burn on the calves its terrible. I spent 4 months not active or able to weight bare on my right side after a heel break. I developed a higher hip too. I'm currently retraining my entire body but my hamstrings and calves are so tight from being under active on one side and overactive in the uninjured side.

    I can't really tell from a paragraph, but you might do the long lesson "Foot Against the Wall." It will teach your nervous system how to put weight on the legs through the knees without straining them. integratedselfeugene.com/all-atms/#foot-against-the-wall. The other really good one for the relationship between the legs and the pelvis is called "Buttocks." It's my most popular lesson. integratedselfeugene.com/all-atms/#buttocks
